Naked man flees Montgomery County authorities

Montgomery County Precinct 4 deputy constables chased a naked man through the woods late Thursday night, ultimately arresting him for possession of a controlled substance and evading arrest.

Just before midnight, two Precinct 4 deputies responded to a domestic disturbance call in New Caney, where an estranged husband was reportedly trying to break down his former wife’s door. As the deputies reached the home at McCluskey and Penny, they saw a man in a vehicle matching the description run a stop sign. Deputies saw that 40-year-old William David Moss III was sweaty, shirtless and not wearing a seat belt.

Moss refused to stop for the officers, driving through a yard, gate and into the woods. Moss eventually jumped out of his damaged vehicle and fled on foot, authorities said.

Moss ran completely naked for about a quarter of a mile. When constables reached him, Moss refused to show both of his hands and authorities deployed a Taser. Moss was arrested and told constables he was naked because he had been with a married woman when her husband came home and he was forced to flee from a bedroom window naked. He was not the man that the initial report had been called in on.

Authorities found a glass pipe containing burnt methamphetamine in his car. He was charged with two state jail felonies.
